Der Grüne Rat (S01E09)

Well, what do you know? If I'm not mistaken, the ninth episode was the only one so far that didn't bore me even for a second. Even the political games caught my interest this time. So far, so good, but then the traditional nonsense and oddities started piling up, with the unnecessary (because nonsensical) scene with Ms. White Worm being the proverbial cherry on top. I didn't quite get it unless it was just a mandatory tribute to the feminist movement. At the same time, I was surprised (well, it wasn't that much of a surprise) by the lack of creativity from the creators, who are surely planning to milk money out of the whole project for several more seasons. How many different colored worms can we expect? Will the brown, red, yellow, and black worms be taboo? It's so exciting to wait for answers to such fundamental questions; I'm trembling with anticipation. / Lesson learned: A person always has a choice. It's just that there's often a catch.

Without that ending, this episode would be barely half as good. But it's true that we're slowly reaching a boiling point between the characters and their motivations. Matt Smith is in a different acting league than the rest. (21.03.2023)
